The Aga Khan Foundation Canada is pleased to invite you to an evening exploring global health and gender equality issues in Africa and Asia. Join us to find out more about the struggles women in developing countries encounter. You will hear first-hand accounts of how Canadian-supported initiatives are contributing to improved health and rights for women and girls to those most in need. The evening will include a moderated armchair discussion with leading experts in the field, including Yasmin Karim, Dr. Shahirose Sadrudin Premji and Dr. Humayoon Helal. 

As part of the In a Heartbeat campaign, AKFC will organize an event at the Ismaili Centre, Toronto, focused on gender equality and sexual and reproductive health and rights. The date of the event is Wednesday October 23rd. This event will provide an opportunity to showcase AKDN health programming in East Africa and Pakistan to members of the Jamat as well as external audiences. AKFC will collaborate with the Ismaili Centre, Toronto to co-host the event.
